Cost of living payment - an example of the shambles which accompany everything that Ardern & her team of nincompoops try to implement.
Because they are basically clueless & useless. They only know how to throw money - not wisely spend it.
All spin and no delivery - Ardern the spin mistress.

The Government has discovered throwing money at a problem does not make it go away – and in fact it can create more of them - for itself.
Its much-vaunted Cost-of-Living payment has now been criticised by some because people who are not getting the payment should be – beneficiaries and superannuitants.
And it has been criticised because people who should not be getting the payment are getting it – expats and migrants who have now returned to their homelands.
Then came the revelation that not as many people were getting it as were supposed to be getting it, even including those who were not supposed to be getting it.
"We're supporting 2.1 million people," the Labour social media posts boasted.
It then transpired the first round of payments only went to 1.3 million people.
